My feeling is the author expresses the views of the vast majority of his country, fellow Arabs and Muslims towards the United States that they have learned not to say on camera. But that they've refrained from saying it openly does NOT mean they're not anti-American. They are. And if you really need proof of how 9-11 hasn't changed American Muslim's hatred of America, just look at the flock of American Muslim organizations that came out on behalf of Jamil Al Amin. This is the true attitude of the cult that President Bush and the American Left naively describe as the "religion of peace." Fortunately, ordinary Americans do seem to get it --- and this new enemy is not going to go away anytime soon.

Every bit of self doubt or anti-Americanism helps bin Laden. Every Saudi student that comes home after a US college education repeats the anti-Americanism he hears at university. "You see, they even hate themselves," is a refrain heard from many Saudi graduates of US universities.

Never a truer word said. The capacity of the left to hate America should not be under-estimated and factored into this war.

President Bush is not naive on this particular deal. What he said was said to maintain peace in our own nation. That was a smart move. We did not need lynch mobs looking for the nearest mosque.

Now, if you want to make the argument that the RATS are naive about this, you have a point. We all know that they are blatantly anti-American.
